About the photographer: Emil Otto Hoppé 1878 - 1972 was a portrait travel and topographic photographer active between 1907 and 1945. Although Hoppé was one of the most important photographic artists of his era and highly celebrated in his time his body of photographic work sat entombed in a London picture library for over thirty years after his death which led to his being forgotten in the latter half of the twentieth century. Curator Graham Howe retrieved Hoppé's work from the picture library in 1994 and merged it with the Hoppé family archive of photographs to make it available to the public.
